Snow in 49 States

Iowa hasn't gotten the foot+ that some states have, but I had to drive home from work in enough of that shit this past Monday. An hour drive, regular time, turned into almost two hours due to snow and ice.

So far we've gotten 46.2 in. (almost 4 ft.) total for the winter, my drive home from work has gone from taking 15 mins. to about 30 mins., and that's moslty when I get to the residential streets, that for some danm reason the snow plows refuse to plow until about 3:30 am two days after the snow has stopped, Tuesday night I literally got stuck ten feet from my fucking drive way, after spending 5 mins. trying to get up the street to my house, I have made several angry calls to the street department, my GF some how got a plow to plow her a path home that same night, unfortunately she got home after me

It's this time of the year that I wished I lived across the street from my damn job, instead of an hour south of it.

When I was in my senior year of HS I did live across the street from my job, it was great, I could just walk him for my lunch breaks, watch some TV, grab a soda and head back over to work, also saved a fortune on gas

Also, the snow in Hawai'i is likely as people are saying - on Mountain tops (only). It may be "hot", or rather "warm" in towns/cities, but considering Mountain tops reach far, far above that of any city in Hawai'i; it's more likely they have snow for longer periods of time than some States that get it regularly.

I think I'd be more shocked that California got snow than Hawai'i.

Pretty sure they have ski resorts in northern California, isn't that where Bear Mountain is located?

Ok so I was mistaken, we don't have nearly 4 ft. of snow, they're just predicting that we will by the time winter is over, we currently have 25.7" (a little over 2 ft.)
